What drives the score

Grades: S best, D weakest

S is the best grade and D the weakest, judged as a buyer. ▲ raises the score, ▼ lowers it, ? is an input we do not have, • is a fact this genre's score does not use. How the grades work

Raising the score
Cost per hourFree
Price per hour of game. It moves the score inside the ceiling reviews set
Reach1.5M+ owners
How many own it, by SteamSpy's estimate (an old snapshot). A free game has no price to weigh, so this is its value read
Holding it back
Reviews
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
For context
MonetizationNot known
No monetization record for this game, so nothing is assumed either way
RefundsFree
A free game cannot be refunded, so the label never applies
AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score
